But one pattern that struck me, that I'm not sure how it will play out, is that Milano has clearly been making an effort not to get injured by being "superman" if he's a bit out of position to really close the deal. So his tackle would slow the guy down and then Edmunds would close the deal. I'm wondering how that will play this season. 1 minute ago, Captain Hindsight said: Was at camp this morning, got to bring my 2 year old son and 2 month old daughter to their first camp My son was happy to meet Kincaid, Dawkins and Spencer Brown.

I wasn't there, but isn't Allen always in a red "no contact " jersey? A trick play like that does place the defensive player in a difficult spot. He's supposed to make a play while at the same time protect his QB. Quote

I always blamed Billy Buffalo for the Bills drought as he debuted in 2000. Then his redesign was 2018 the only season Bills missed playoffs since drought ended. just sayin… Edited July 31, 2023 by freddyjj Quote
NickelCity Posted July 31, 2023 Posted July 31, 2023 (edited) I don't think much on sherfield today other than hearing that he was shut down by Dane (in early 1x1s? Can't recall). Would be a big boost if he can add something reliable to this team... Edited July 31, 2023 by NickelCity 1 Quote

But then when Josh runs or catches for-real and lets go for a drop or fumble, will you be in the crowd complaining about his fumbling tendencies? If he's gonna play it, he's gotta practice it No. There are other ways to practice ball security without getting your franchise QB injured Quote

I don’t know that there is any good option as a starting LB at the NFL level among Dodson, Bernard , Klein and Spector. I am also somewhat disappointed that Elam hasn’t yet claimed the top CB spot opposite White. The competition that he must beat out in Jackson and Benford were both late round draftees for a reason and it doesn’t look good that Elam isn’t clearly a better player than either of them. Now, I’m not saying that Elam should get the job if he doesn’t win it, but it would be another early round draft miss if he doesn’t. Way too early for this I would say...they are not going to hand Elam the job, so not a surprise he didn't enter camp as the default guy opposite Tre. Lot of football left before they decide who starts and doesn't. This time of year all kinds of guys can look great or look behind, but it all changes when the real football begins to shape everyone out. I still think Elam has a good shot to win the job, but he is going to need to earn it because Dane and Benford are no slouch. And once you are drafted, your draft slot means nothing, its all about what you do on the field. Doesn't matter if the best players comes from an UDFA or a first round pick, just matters who is playing the best and most ready to help us win games. Quote

Size isn't everything, *insert joke here*, but Bernard's instincts, quickness to read/react and ability to use his hands to shed blocks...was a big plus from Baylor scouts. He fits the athletic measurables, undersized guys like him usually take a year or so of NFL training, to see any potential. I don't think LY was a good indicator at all, and still think Dodson has the leg up. Worse case, we find a sub package role or he's a S/T replacement for Big Red Quote
billsfan89 Posted July 31, 2023 Posted July 31, 2023 Looking forward to seeing how Torrence holds up in pads. Good reviews early on but O-line players really need the pads to really evaluate them. Also interested to see the RT battle, can Brown have a rebound season? 1 Quote

Would be a big boost if he can add something reliable to this team... I think Sherfield could put together a Gabe Davis rookie type season if there are enough snaps for him. I think Harty will be adding something reliable and spectacular to this team….. as long as he remains active. If he gets hurt, I think that’s when Sherfield could take on a year 1 Gabe role. my hope is that we play mostly Diggs-Davis-Kincaid- Knox with Harty/shakir mixed in and complimented by some jumbo sets with Gilliam and even some Morris. I love me some Quintin Morris 1 Quote
